I make a motion...
That we have AEs for April Fool's Day. Do I have any takers?
Someone who knows about making AEs (Smo, SW2B 
) will have to give us a tutorial, because I know nothing..... except that I may not get a lot of work done tomorrow.

Well, the crap about waiting three days to post is garbage.
You just need to have an email account and a clever SN. If you have gmail, you can just add a period in there somewhere to create a new account. The Nest views it as a different email, even though it will go to your gmail.
So S.Morriso at gmail.com would work. If my regular email was smorriso at gmail.com
Basically you can pick something in pop culture. Some people use characters. Ann Shirley from Ann of Green Gables. There were a lot of politicians on P&CE. Controversial characters, etc.
You kind of want to make it less obvious, and not post offensive crap to an actual Niner.
Then you post. It's fun.

It isn't too bad. In October, I didn't use two servers.
I know a lot of our computers have it logged in already for when we open up our Nest page.
Also, the rule on P&CE was that you post in your AE the entire day, until there is the big reveal at the end of the day. That is optional, but it helped so you didn't have to go back and forth so much.

Damn you, Rebecca Black. Damn you.

I have no idea what MB was spouting about.
But, ALL you do is log out of your account you're using now, and create another Nest account with a different email addy and a 'clever,' as Smo said, AE SN, and there you go.
Easy peasy.
::hairflip::
My thought was that I would post some from my phone and some from my comp, since I only have IE on my work comp.
Well, yeah - if you're going to use just one SN the whole day, they it's not a problem... it's the going back and forth between multiple AEs at the same time where the logging in and out can become hellish, is all. At least it's a pain in the @ss on my work computer anyway...

It can be a lot switching back and forth. Also, more room for error.
It is poster's choice though.

Welcome to the team!

Must have a sucky comp. :-(
YOU SHALL NOT PASS.
Not my own, so I don't have much to say in the matter.
Luckily I'll be able to post from home tomorrow, so no worries -- I'll be sure to have my AE-ing abilities in their prime.

Can this thread please not turn into a battlezone? haha.
Does anyone want to add other rules they think are significant?
Or care to change the rules listed below:
- No using a Niner's version of the name (as in imitating a Niner)
- No offensive or calling out an actual Niner under the guise of the AEs (supposed to be fun)
- Will participate reveal AE identity in identity post tomorrow

I've had a lot of success getting better technology, any equipment really, at jobs by pointing if this was better or that was better, I would able to do more of X which would benefit the company because of X.
Boom: new computer. :-)
Also, do some research and present them with two or three cheap but good options for computer i.e. make them do the least amount of work.
newegg.com is good for stuff like that (But I think you've already mentioned you know about that website)
Sounds good!

Go away now.
Kthxbai.
I second the motion! ::bangs gavel::
Oh! Fun and funny signature pictures are welcome and encouraged. Same with signature lines and avatars.

No you should do it but our responses should be from our AE.
Like for instance if someone was Paula Dean they would AW her husband, or pet, or whatever.
So whatever you had in mind for tomorrow we would respond as our AE.
Sound good?
Acutally sugar, that is Deen with two Es.
I'll f*ck up some bacon
Ok! Obviously, I will have to post with my normal SN since it will be a dead give away that it's me
Also, I will do one that isn't a post a picture of yourself, because that also is a dead give away. ETA: Never mind the last sentence, I didn't read it correctly. You aren't actually posting about your real self.
I will figure something out
